Air filter oil question

[Barber213]

Does anyone know of a a good air filter oil I can use for my filter ?

I use motorcycle foam filter oil , I think it is PJ1. It comes in a spray can. Put the filter in a plastic bag and spray it , massage it in and done. A can should last a long time if you go that route.

I use belray foam filter oil. Use the bag method like smokin mentioned. I use belray foam filter cleaner as well. Don't use gasoline or other harsh solvents as it will breakdown the glue that holds the filter together and possibly the foam itself depending on the chemical used.

i use maxima fft,
has a solvent in it that carries the oil right into the foam,
soak the filter, squeeze out the excess, let the solvent evaporate and its good to go,
solvent will not affect the foam of the filter ,

Anyone run the SP1 mushroom type filter? I cant find a cleaner that will dissolve the green oil they come saturated in.

Unifilter oil from cycle gear and dawn dish soap to clean or be fancy and use uni filter cleaner or k&n filter cleaner

I use the DT1 dome filter on my 5ive B. It came with a green oil. Belray foam filter cleaner removed it easily.

Some filter oils can be washed out with soap and waters, others, like belray filter oil, need a solvent based cleaner or mineral spirits.

That Belray cleaner works great. I was shocked how good it actually works.

Its definitely worth the price.

Yes it is a little pricy but holy crap it works.
It is amazing as soon as water hits it after you spray it everything just turns white and washes away.
